I think where people find a problem is with the finger on the trigger and the safety off, as was mentioned.

Personally, I don't care about someone putting holes in their own wives, kids, homes, floors, family pets because of negligence. Oh, I feel sorry for them having to live with that, sure, but I'm not one to tell others how to do their thing.

I do get pissed when the media uses those totally preventable tragedies to try to shove more gun legislation down our throats. It's easier on all of us if all gun owners were as responsible as we like to think we are.
